Lindokuhle Sobekwa 

Lindokuhle Sobekwa is a South African photographer and visual storyteller, born and based in Thokoza. He uses visual storytelling as a way to share personal stories and of those in his environment.

Lindokuhle’s early projects dealt with poverty and unemployment in the townships of South Africa, as well as the growing nyaope drug crisis within them. His ongoing works, as well as revisiting those early themes, also deal with his own life – for example his relationship with his sister, Ziyanda, who died after becoming estranged from her family. Lindokuhle joined Magnum Photos in 2018 and became an associate member in 2020.
